Erisha E-Super E Auto

The Erisha E-Super E Auto is a fully electric three-wheeler auto rickshaw (L5M high-speed passenger carrier) from Erisha E Mobility, priced from Rs 3.86 lakh. Built on a chassis-with-cabin layout with a fully built body, it seats a driver and three passengers (D+3) within a 795 kg gross vehicle weight and a 470 kg kerb weight, leaving roughly 325 kg for passengers and luggage. It targets city auto operators and small fleet owners moving people on short, predictable routes.

Range and charging

A 10.2 kWh lithium-ion pack on a 51.2V architecture, rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, delivers a claimed range of 170-190 km per charge. A full charge takes about 4 hours on the included 3 kW charger, which fits an overnight top-up between working days. The 10.5 kW rated motor power keeps the pack sized for a full day of city passenger duty.

Performance and payload

A 14 hp brushless DC motor produces 38 Nm of torque, taking the E-Super to a top speed of 55 km/h with 15 per cent gradeability. A 2-stage reduction transmission with integrated differential, hydraulically actuated drum brakes and 200 mm ground clearance round out the package. The 795 kg gross weight against a 470 kg kerb weight leaves about 325 kg of effective load, with a 1,940 mm wheelbase and 2,690 mm overall length for compact city manoeuvring.

Who should buy it

The E-Super suits city auto operators and small fleets whose daily pattern is short passenger hops with access to charging between trips. At a from price of Rs 3.86 lakh it undercuts petrol three-wheelers on running cost, but buyers should expect a basic cabin: no AC, handle bar steering and no seat belts as standard. Operators planning long duty cycles should confirm the 3 kW charger install and service network coverage with their dealer before committing.
